Will Levis’ long and awkward wait to be drafted was finally ended by the Titans

After sliding out of the 2023 NFL Draft’s first round, Kentucky quarterback Will Levis has found his landing spot.

The Tennessee Titans traded up to pick No. 33 with the Arizona Cardinals and snagged Levis to be the signal caller of the future in Nashville.

Levis’ Thursday night fall was a bit of a surprise, as he was a rumored top pick leading into the draft’s first night.

However, Levis would wind up waiting until Friday night to join his first NFL team with the Titans.

He’ll join the AFC South with fellow rookie quarterbacks in C.J. Stroud (Houston Texans) and Anthony Richardson (Indianapolis Colts).

What this move means for quarterback Ryan Tannehill is that his days are likely numbered in Music City.

While it’s very possible Tennessee sits Levis for a year while Tannehill serves as a bridge quarterback the future, it’s also very possible the Titans could wind up trading Tannehill to a quarterback-needy team.

The future is unknown for Levis in Tennessee, but his draft slide is indeed over.
